Integration and measures on the space of countable labelled graphs
Abstract
In this paper we develop a rigorous foundation for the study of integration and measures on the space of all graphs defined on a countable labelled vertex set . We first study several interrelated -algebras and a large family of probability measures on graph space. We then focus on a "dyadic" Hamming distance function , which was very useful in the study of differentiation on . The function is shown to be a Haar measure-preserving bijection from the subset of infinite graphs to the circle (with the Haar/Lebesgue measure), thereby naturally identifying the two spaces. As a consequence, we establish a "change of variables" formula that enables the transfer of the Riemann-Lebesgue theory on to graph space . This also complements previous work in which a theory of Newton-Leibnitz differentiation was transferred from the real line to for countable . Finally, we identify the Pontryagin dual of , and characterize the positive definite functions on .
